ISS & AISP embark on enhancing security skills in IT professionals

The Institute of Systems Science (ISS) and Association of Information Security Professionals (AISP) have signed an agreement on 20 August 2009 to mark the beginning of a pioneering mission in promoting security and enhancing the status and interests of information security professionals in Singapore.

ISS will be developing a certification programme for IT security professionals which will help determine their adequacy of information security skills and competencies. ISS will also administer a qualifying examination to certify the programme’s participants. This programme is slated to be conducted in the first quarter of next year.

A good start to enhance security skills in IT professionals.
